Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filter
Aris Filtration manufactures and exports Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filters in Gujarat, India, for precision filtration of liquids, gases and process streams. These filters are made by sintering multiple layers of woven wire mesh to create a strong, controlled filtration medium with customized diameter, micron rating and thickness options. They are suitable for demanding filtration applications across chemicals, petrochemicals, water treatment, refineries and other process industries.
What Is a Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filter?
A Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filter is a rigid filtration disc manufactured by combining multiple layers of woven stainless-steel wire mesh and bonding them through a controlled sintering process.
Unlike a single-layer wire mesh, the multi-layer construction allows different mesh layers to perform different functions. A fine filtration layer provides filtration precision, while supporting and protective layers improve mechanical strength and help maintain the structure of the filter media.
Aris Filtration's sintered multilayer disc filters are designed with multiple mesh weavings to achieve application-specific combinations of pore size, permeability, thickness and mechanical strength.
How Does a Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filter Work?
The filtration process is based on controlled openings within the sintered multi-layer mesh structure.
- The process fluid or gas enters the filtration system.
- The contaminated medium comes into contact with the sintered disc.
- Particles larger than the selected filtration opening are retained by the filter media.
- The filtered liquid or gas passes through the controlled pore structure.
- The supporting layers provide mechanical stability to the filtration medium.
The multi-layer construction makes it possible to combine fine filtration with structural reinforcement in a single compact disc filter.
What Are the Key Features of Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filters?
Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filters are selected when a filtration process requires a combination of filtration precision, strength and high usable filtration area.
Key features include:
- Multi-layer woven wire mesh construction
- Customized disc diameter
- Micron ratings from 1 to 500 microns
- Available thicknesses of 1.7 mm and 2.4 mm
- SS316L, SS316 and SS304 media options
- High filtration area
- High flow capacity
- Low pressure drop
- High dust-holding capacity
- Easy installation
- Excellent filtration performance
- Application-specific mesh-layer configuration
The published Aris Filtration product range allows the filter construction to be selected according to the required filtration accuracy, permeability and mechanical strength.
What Are the Technical Specifications of the Filter?
The appropriate disc configuration depends on the process fluid, contaminant characteristics, filtration requirement and equipment design.
| Specification | Available Options |
|---|---|
| Product Type | Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filter |
| Diameter | Customized |
| Micron Rating | 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, 250, 500 micron |

| Filter Media | SS316L, SS316, SS304 |
| Construction | Sintered multi-layer woven wire mesh |
| Filtration | Liquid, gas and process filtration applications |
Important: Final material grade, micron rating, diameter and construction should be selected according to the process conditions and filtration system requirements.
Why Is Multi-Layer Sintered Mesh Used for Disc Filtration?
Multi-layer sintered mesh provides more design flexibility than conventional single-layer mesh.
Different layers can be engineered for different purposes. The filtration layer can provide the required particle-retention characteristics, while coarser support layers provide reinforcement and help protect the finer filtration layer.
This construction allows manufacturers to balance filtration accuracy, permeability and mechanical strength according to the application.
For industrial buyers, this means the filter can be specified around the process requirement rather than selecting a one-size-fits-all mesh.
Where Are Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filters Used?
Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filters can be considered for a broad range of industrial filtration requirements. Aris Filtration specifically identifies applications including pharmaceuticals, chemical plants, petrochemicals, de-dusting, water conditioning, and gas and steam purification.
The product can also be evaluated for filtration requirements within the following industries when the process conditions and filter configuration are suitable:
- Water Treatment: Water conditioning and process-water filtration
- Refineries: Process-fluid and gas filtration
- Mining: Process and slurry-related filtration requirements
- Pulp & Paper: Process-fluid filtration
- Chemicals: Chemical-process filtration
- Textiles: Process-fluid filtration
- Power Plants: Water, steam and process filtration
- Dyes & Intermediates: Chemical and process filtration
- Oil & Gas: Process filtration
- Edible Oils: Oil and process-fluid filtration
- Automobiles: Industrial process and coolant filtration
- Petrochemicals: Process-fluid and gas filtration
- Paints & Inks: Process filtration and contaminant removal

- Cement: Dust and process filtration
- Fertilizers: Chemical and process filtration
- Bio-Pharma: Application-specific liquid or gas filtration
- Ceramics: Process filtration
- Sugar: Process-fluid filtration
- Defence & Marine: Application-specific industrial filtration
Actual suitability should always be confirmed against the fluid chemistry, particle characteristics, operating conditions and equipment design.
How Do You Select the Right Sintered Disc Filter?
Choosing the correct sintered disc filter requires more than selecting a micron rating. The filter should be matched to the complete filtration process.
Consider these parameters:
1. Required Micron Rating
Select the filtration rating according to the size and nature of particles that must be retained. Aris Filtration publishes ratings from 1 to 500 microns for its sintered multilayer disc filters.
2. Filter Material
SS304, SS316 and SS316L are available options. Material selection should be based on chemical compatibility and process conditions.
3. Disc Diameter
The disc diameter should match the filtration equipment, housing, candle or filter assembly in which the element will be installed.
4. Required Flow
The required flow rate influences the effective filtration area and filter configuration.
5. Operating Conditions
Fluid temperature, pressure, viscosity, chemical composition and contaminant loading should be considered before finalizing the filter specification.
A correctly selected filtration element balances particle retention, flow requirements, pressure drop, material compatibility and service conditions.
What Are the Benefits of Using a Sintered Multi-Layer Disc Filter?
The main advantage of a sintered multilayer disc is its ability to combine fine filtration with a mechanically supported filter structure.
Key benefits include:
- High filtration area in a compact disc format
- Controlled filtration openings
- High flow capacity
- Low pressure drop
- High dust-holding capacity
- Strong multi-layer construction
- Customized filtration configuration
- Stainless-steel media options
- Suitable for demanding industrial filtration applications
- Easy integration into suitable filtration equipment
These characteristics make sintered multilayer discs useful where conventional filtration media may not provide the required combination of precision and structural support.
